Consult the designs in the front pages referenced in the text by
alphabet letters. Closely follow the instructions set out in this
manual. All responsibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages
or fires caused by not complying with the instructions in this manual,
is declined.

The rangehood must be placed at a minimum distance of 650mm
from the cooking plane for electric, gas and mixed cooktops.
Please confirm measurement with your Local Building Authority.

The rangehood is equipped with a top air outlet "B“ for discharge of
fumes to the outside (Ducting version – exhaust pipe and pipe
fixing clamps not provided).
Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and vapour to
the outside, the rangehood can be used in the filter version, by
fitting an activated carbon filter and the deflector
(bracket)

Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the rangehood to most
types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must verify
suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling,
which must be strong enough to take the weight of the rangehood.

Installation - Fig. 6

Preliminary information for installation of the rangehood:

Disconnect the rangehood during electrical connection, by
turning the home mains switch off.
Remove the grease filter/s.

Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface
mounting only.
Do not fix chimney flue to furniture or fly over shelves unless the
chimney flue can be easily removed, in case maintenance is ever
required.

Assembling the chimney flue support/bracket (3 parts):

The three parts should be fixed with 4 screws, the support extension
is adjustable and should correspond to the internal width of the
telescopic chimney flue.

Assembling the deflector (only when a deflector composed of 3
parts is supplied – the deflector should be only for the filter
version):

The three parts should be fixed with 2 screws, the deflector extension
is adjustable and should correspond to the width of the chimney flue
support, to which it is then fixed.

1. Rest the suction unit on a flat surface and thread the lower part

of the

rangehood onto it.

2. Make all the electrical connections between the two parts.

3. Permanently fix the

rangehood to the suction group with the
screws (consult the figure corresponding to the model in
possession).

4. Using a pencil, draw a line on the wall, extending up to the

ceiling, to mark the centre.

This will facilitate installation.

5. Rest the drilling template against the wall: the vertical centre line

printed on the drilling template must correspond to the centre
line drawn on the wall, and the bottom edge of the drilling
template must correspond to the bottom edge of the

rangehood
: bear in mind that, when installation is complete, the underside
of the rangehood must be at least 650mm above electric, gas

Warning!

Always press the fan off button "A" before disconnecting the
rangehood from the mains supply.

19

Maintenance

Prior to any maintenance operation ensure that the rangehood is
disconnected from the power supply.

Cleaning

The rangehood should be cleaned regularly internally and externally.
For cleaning use a cloth moistened with denatured alcohol or neutral
liquid detergents. Avoid abrasive detergents.

Warning:

Failure to carry out the basic standards of the cleaning of the
rangehood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks.
Therefore we recommend observing these instructions.

Grease filter

This must be cleaned once a month (and, for the model with
electronic control panel, every time LED 4 starts to flash – see
preceding page) using non aggressive detergents, either by hand or
in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a
short cycle.

When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolour
slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.

To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle "F" - (Fig.

2).

Charcoal filter (filter version only)

It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking.
The charcoal filter can be washed once every two months (when
using the rangehood 2.5 hours per day, in average and, for the
model with electronic control panel, every time LED 5 starts to
flash – see preceding page) using hot water and a suitable
detergent, or in a dishwasher at 65°C (if the dishwasher is used,
select the full cycle function and leave dishes out).
Eliminate excess water without damaging the filter, then remove the
mattress located inside the plastic frame and put it in the oven for 10
minutes at 100° C to dry completely. Replace the mattress every 3
years and when the cloth is damaged.
Remove the filter holder frame by turning the knobs
the chimney to the rangehood (Fig. 3).
Insert the pad "I" of activated carbon into the frame "H" and fit the
whole back into its housing "J".

Replacing lamps - Fig. 4
Warning!

Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are cooled down.

For models shown in Fig. 1E:

1. Press on the lamp cover and release to open (fig. 4A).

2. Replace the damaged light bulb.

Only use halogen bulbs of 20W max (G4), making sure you do
not touch them with your hands.

3. Close the lamp cover (it will snap shut).

For models shown in Fig. 1A-1B-1C-1D-1F-1H-1I-1K:

1. Extract the guard by levering it off with a small screwdriver or
similar tool.(fig. 4B).

2. Replace the damaged light bulb.

Only use halogen bulbs of 20W max (G4), making sure you do
not touch them with your hands.

3. Close the lamp cover (it will snap shut).

For models shown in Fig. 1J:

1. Use a small screwdriver as a lever on the borders of the lamp in
order to remove the lightbulb.

2. Unthread the connector

3. Slide out the lightbulb to be replaced and replace with a new 12V

20W 30° Ø35 12V GU4 PHILIPS STANDARD LINE code

425409.

4. Carry out the replacement and mount the new lightbulb by
following instructions in the reverse.

For models shown in Fig. 1G:

Dismount the chimneys: remove the two screws (20 a) that
attaches the upper chimney to the support "G“ (Fig. 6).
Remove the box "Q“: remove the screw "R“ that secures the
rangehood.
Remove the lamp housing "S": remove the screws
position the housing in the lamp housing area.
Extract the damaged lamp.
Use only PHILIPS type 14515 (GX 5.3) 12V - 75W halogen
bulbs..
Reposition and secure the lamp housing
and remount the chimneys.

For models shown in Fig. 1K:

Certain versions of this rangehood provide for an incandescent
lamp at 40W maximum (E14), remove the grease filter to access the
lamp housing and carry out any replacements.

If the lights do not work, make sure that the lamps are fitted
properly into their housings before you call for technical
assistance.

Caution

This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children should
not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the appliance.
Do not use the rangehood where the grill is not correctly fixed! The
suctioned air must not be conveyed in the same channel used for
fumes discharged by appliances powered by anything other than
electricity. The environment must always be adequately aerated
when the rangehood and other appliances powered by anything
other than electricity are used at the same time. Flambé cooking
with a rangehood is prohibited. The use of a free flame is damaging
to the filters and may cause fire accidents, therefore free flame
cooking must be avoided. Frying of foods must be kept under close
control in order to avoid overheated oil catching fire. Carry
out fumes discharging in accordance with the regulations in force
by local laws for safety and technical restrictions.
